You're thinking a bit simplistically there. It's not that is a

see but that shows its hand when you send more data along the
cable. All those other people found theirs worked fine, but yours
only works for when you send less data. That's exactly the failure
mode one would expect barring an obvious flaw. It's a $7 cable and
easy replace until you get one that works.
So much for the theory that there aren't different "grades" of HDMI cable.
